Creamy Lasagna Soup

Sometimes you’re just over the entire day, and all you really want to do is go home and indulge; am I right? I’ve been getting that feeling a lot lately.

I’ve also been eating a lot of pasta lately, too! So, Lasagna isn’t really one of my go-tos… not really a favorite of mine. But this creamy lasagna soup seriously hit it out of the ball park! I don’t think I’ll ever make layered lasagna ever again.

But really…

This is a put-everything-in-one-pot indulgence, and it’s so easy to make!

And even better to enjoy! Now, enough with the talking and let’s get to the yumminess.

HERE IS WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

1 lb ground turkey (85/15)

1 large onion

3 cloves garlic

1 carton chicken broth

1 jar pasta sauce (I used spicy marinara!)

1 can petite diced tomatoes

1 T Italian seasoning

1 t basil

1 t oregano

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 bay leaf

10 whole wheat lasagna noodles, broken into 2″ pieces

¼ fresh parsley, chopped

1 T sugar

½ C heavy cream

In a stock pot, sauté turkey and onions on medium heat until browned. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Drain any excess fat or liquids from the pan.
